Removing valve guides sounds like a project so involved and costly you would be better off buying a new head instead. At least I'd think twice about it.

If the head's out, I have a machine shop do a valve job on it. This usually includes new valve guides and seals.

That's gonna depend on how bad your head is and what you want done.
